Capo 4
Am G
Down by the creek where the water goes slow
F C
The green-back heron and the moccasin know
Dm7 Am
All things come to him who waits
Bb F walk to Dm7 Am
Yet he is lost who hesitates
Am
Life and death just dancing around in the mud
Am G
The light comes down through the limbs and the leaves
F C
And dapples the water between the reeds
Dm7 Am
The air tastes green the bank gets soft
Bb F Dm7 Am
Right about then your shoes come off
Am
You got to get it between your toes the mud
Chorus:
C G
Mud pie mud in your eye
Am F
Mud on a snake bite don't you die
C G
Take a little rain take a little dirt
Am F
Make a little mud get it on your shirt
Am G
When I die please bury me
F C
Down by this old muddy creek
Dm7 Am
Let the crawfish have their way
Bb F Dm7 Am
It's mud to mud and that's okay
Am
We all just crawled out of the mud
Chorus 2x
Am
We're all just slogging through the mud.
(Snake Rattle)
